Executive education for lawyers: Management for the Legal Profession (MLP-HSG)

The market for commercial law services has changed dramatically in recent years. Competition has intensified across the board - not only among law firms, but also between law firms and other providers of legal services. While there is some pick up now, compared to earlier periods there is less M&A and similar activites. Turnarounds and reorganizations, in contrast, have gained importance. Conditions have changed for more than just law firms, too. Corporate counsels are under growing pressure to cut costs and improve performance. Legal excellence is no longer enough - today's lawyers expected to have entrepreneurial skills and profound management knowledge as well.

The "Management for the Legal Profession (MLP-HSG)" diploma programme teaches lawyers state-of-the-art management and business expertise that is tailored to their requirements, enables them to fulfil their leadership roles and helps them understand their customers' needs better.
